Help A Hero

SportClips is Proud to Support Our Veterans

Since 2013, Sport Clips has been the primary supporter of the VFW’s Sport Clips Help A Hero Scholarship program, which provides scholarships for service members and veterans for use at post-secondary schools and trade schools. To date, we have awarded more than 1,400 scholarships totaling $6.5 million.

Our scholarship recipients come from every part of the United States, represent every branch of service and are earning a variety of degrees including engineering, computer science, business, accounting, health care and many more. During its annual promotion in 2019, Sport Clips locations around the country collected $1.35 million to continue to support the educational goals of our service members and veterans.

“Being chosen to receive this scholarships has been a blessing to me and my family. It has been instrumental in allowing my wife, two young children and I to spend time with each other while I attend college full-time.” – Jack Raliff, U.S. Army

“This scholarship is a dream come true and I am the happiest person because of it. I can now save money and provide for my daughter and teenage sister. I am forever grateful to Sport Clips and the VFW.” – Porsche Johnson, U.S. Navy

“The VFW and all the supporters of the VFW have been a huge blessing to myself and my family. Knowing I was chosen as a Help A Hero Scholarship recipient means more than words can express. This award will put me one step closer to achieving my dream of obtaining my master’s degree as well as being a better role model for my children.” – Cameron Shanks, U.S. Army Reserves

In 2018, through the generous donations from our Clients and our partners, we collected $1.35 million for the program and were able to present this record-breaking donation to the VFW at their headquarters in Kansas City.
